The gate thief

Orson Scott Card

Here on Earth, Danny North is still in high school, yet he holds in his heart and mind all the stolen outselves of thirteen centuries of gatemages. The families still want to kill him if they can't control him, and they can't; he is far too powerful. On Westil, Wad is nearly powerless; he lost everything to Danny in their struggle. Even if he can survive the revenge of his enemies, he must still somehow make peace with the Gatemage Daniel North.
